Welcome to Ryslig's test drive meme! If you're considering apping here, this is where you can try your characters out in the game's setting. A few things to note:
You can only app ONE character per round so choose wisely.
We now have a Quick Game Facts that simplifies the basic information about the game. Good if you want to see what the game is at a glance!
Lots of people have asked good questions on the FAQ, so do take a look.
The reserve date has been announced (it was changed to the 30th to allow a maximum number of people compared to a Friday).
Test drive meme threads can be used for your roleplay sample!
NEW! Players with characters already in the game can earn up to a maximum of 3 coins by replying to potential character threads! You will need to have your normal 20 comment AC in the game. You cannot use this to go over the bonus 10 coins per month total, but you can use it if you are missing some threads to reach that coin total. Same rules as normal bonuses apply.
Sample scenarios:
SCENARIO ONE: So you've just arrived, fresh out of the hospital, and already the natives are trying to get on your good side. Offers of food, shelter and other luxuries in return for hoping you don't eat them. They even have some helpful pamphlets to share with you. "How To Deal With Changes", "Alternatives to Human Flesh", "What to Expect When You're Expecting (to turn into a monster)" are all great pamphlets. There's even some detailing certain monsters, and the changes they go through.
Among these however, are some... not so helpful ones. "Bunnyipyips And You", "Axe Thief Axehounds," and "So you're becoming a Fur Bearing Trout" among others.
SCENARIO TWO: You've become hopelessly lost in Lager Woods. Paths don't seem to lead where you remember them leading, and you feel as if you're going around in circles. Childlike giggling can be heard from no direction in particular. Suddenly, you stumble upon another character, who seems to be just as lost as you! Perhaps you can find a way out together. Or maybe they want you for lunch...
SCENARIO THREE: You've heard about the fog, but you've never seen it before. Now, the mist surrounds you. Barely able to see before you, you need to get home - and fast. It's far too dangerous in this situation.
SCENARIO FOUR: The time has come and you've found yourself becoming a monster. Is the change instant, or gradual? Are you familiar enough with monsters to know what's happening, or is it a complete shock? NOTE: Feel free to pick any monster type for this prompt, but note that you may not get the same one in game.
[Oblivious to the newfound fear in Tavros' voice, Gamzee kept babbling on and on - quickly growing accustomed to acting like his old self. His old self that hadn't murdered willy-nilly without a shred of remorse for anyone or anything. Of course, all resemblance to his former, more pacifistic self was merely a ruse. He was callous and violent to the core, but for Tavros, he'd pretend to be whatever he needed to be.]
Uhh... You came from motherfuckin' the place with the water and the boats, right?
[It shouldn't go without mentioning that there was still a shred of him that delighted in the simplistic, primitive nature that used to be his modus operandi. The fact that he could so effortlessly fall back into that tired routine while Tavros was around was a testament to how at ease Gamzee actually felt while he was with him.]
Took a lot of motherfucking wandering to get your ass all the way up and at this foresty joint, yo. We about halfway between the two main mother fucking hoods - Vandare's where you was coming from, uh...
[He spun on his bare feet, holding his index finger up and pointing forward until he stopped swiveling.]
That'a way. Or, like... I could all be taking you the fuck back with me to all be where fucking them cool gangstas hole up. That's Bavan, in, uh...
[ He scratches the bridge of his nose with a claw, worrying his lip as he rolls the options over in his mind. Being with other monsters would be ideal, right? If he's going to change then it'd be best to do it with people who knew what was happening. People who could... in theory, at least, maybe make it all easier for him.
But... ]
Won't the people in Bavan, also try to eat me?
[ Probably not the smartest of ideas. ]
I hope that isn't really, stereotyping or offensive. But, from the perspective of someone new who has already been accosted, I would worry that maybe next time they wouldn't be a friend, and I would be alone, and I really don't want to die like that.
[ He shifts from foot to foot. ]
And I don't want to die. Or be maimed. Because [ a little assertively, like he's reminding himself ] I don't deserve bad things happening to me. And neither do you.
[ Because what is friendship without bolstering someone up?? ]
[That last part gets a curt little chuckle from him. What in the holy mother of fuck did Tavros know about what Gamzee did or did not deserve? He couldn't be too upset about it at all - it's not like he ever filled Tavros in on any of the awful things he'd done. Furthermore, he wasn't actually sure he could get that upset at Tavros over anything. With a simple shrug of his shoulders, he offered the boy a calm, lopsided grin.]
You could be motherfucking getting eated anywhere them ashy little legs be taking you, my most cautious of motherfuckers.
[Gamzee didn't seem too concerned about the fact that most everyone around these parts was a ravenous, flesh-eating monster. He practically had a spring in his step, still scurrying backwards as the trees began to thin and the last bits of sun were finally able to peek through their leaves.]
Bavan's got lots more monsters what got they righteous squats all up and popped there, yeah... But that also be motherfucking meaning, like, the other fucking folk what be all living there ain't getting up to be, like, treating on you at like some motherfucking freak show or some shit, like what's they all like to be motherfucking doing in Vandare.
Play it motherfuckin' safe and get looked at funny in V-Town, or be kickin' it with the monstery folk in the B-Crib. I ain't gonna be a brother what gets his tell on in you what to be motherfucking doing, yo. You smart enough to all be going with what that little pump biscuit yours get all up to telling in you to do.
[He does go on, doesn't he? Mainly, Gamzee just lets the words continue to fall from his mouth while his mind goes off somewhere else entirely,]

Fuckin' the other way.
Up to you, bro.
